Canadian Tunde Adeleke exciting about Hamilton Tiger-Cats new-look defence
Tunde Adeleke is only 27, but he’s already an elder statesman on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats defence.
“Yeah, it’s different being one of the older guys on the team,” Adeleke said with a chuckle. “I think the previous five years, a lot of rookies have come in at the same age as me so it’s starting to get a little bit different.It will be a new-look Hamilton defence in 2023, with seven starters from last year’s unit no longer with the team.
Last year, Hamilton’s defence was solid against the run , allowed the second-fewest offensive yards and was fourth overall in sacks . But it was also ranked fifth in offensive points allowed , sixth against the pass , eighth in interceptions and last in turnovers forced . “‘A great defence is often a result of a great offence, great special teams and that works all the way around,” he said. “It usually all balances out in the end but that’s what we refer to as complimentary football.Adeleke, a 2019 CFL all-star, agrees.
